This property is not currently for sale or for rent.
It's the early 1800's, traveling Lima Plank Road from Fort Wayne north toward the town of Lima (Indiana), now known as Howe, and you’ll soon pass through an area once called “the opening”, a natural clearing in the forests of northern Allen County. When passing through one of these first settlements, now called Huntertown, turn west on a road called Hunter Street. Two blocks down on the north side of the road, on nearly an acre parcel, stands a once opulent home of its time. Built in 1830 by William T. Hunter, this home yearns to be returned to its deserving place of prominence. Recent improvements have been made to the roof and foundation which halted further deterioration to the home. Now it’s time for the 2,636 SF in between. The current owner, while wanting to proceed with heartfelt conviction, just cannot. The ‘in between part’ is in great disrepair. It is not a task for the casual or weekend DIYer. Much of the original windows doors, hardwood floors are there, but time and previous owner interests, including conversion to a duplex, have taken its toll. Help tell the story of the many uses this home has provided through nearly two centuries, and use one of those themes as the canvas for its revival. The serious and capable are encouraged to take a tour of this wonderful home, consider its value to the area, and as a restoration project for a new purpose or viable resale.
West off (old) Lima Rd on Hunter St, just north of Gump. Two blocks down on north side.
